Life of A High School Student

Chapter 46: Surprise Lesson

May 9th, 2019...

I can't believe I'm in this situation right now, it's got to be the worst scenario I've ever been in! I keep messing things up and now I'm stuck here until it ends!

3 hours earlier

After my quick recovery from the illness I had gotten, I returned steadily to my regular schedule. Making sure I got a few naps and rest when needed so I don't drain myself of energy.

I was at my locker grabbing my things for the rest of the day when someone snuck up behind me and covered my eyes.

"Guess who?"

I smile recognizing the voice immediately, I turn around to see Dante smirking as he stares at me.

He steps back for a moment only to get something out of his pocket, and puts it slowly in my hand.

Confused I look to him for an explanation. I examine the blue cloth in my palm thoroughly, wondering what it's for.

"Wrap it around your eyes. I have a surprise for you."

Hesitantly I do as he asks. My vision is swallowed by the darkness and not a moment later Dante grabs my hand dragging me to wherever this "surprise" is.

I tried to recognize where we were in the building, but I slowly gave up after I realized that Dante had been going in different directions on purpose to confuse me. He knew I was logical enough to pinpoint where we were going if we went straight there, since I was familiar with the layout of our school building very well.

Sighing, I give up on guessing what we're going to do and continue to hold on to his hand tightly, making sure I don't suddenly let go and have no clue where I am.

After for what seems like hours he stops abruptly and I pause waiting for him to say something.

Slowly, I start to remove my blind cover and look at what's in front of me.

I see a door.

Dante swiftly turns me around and for the first time I get a glimpse of the room I'm in and the people that are there.

I look to see Abby, Jake, Andrew and Irene there so I start to walk towards them.

My smile drops as I get a look of who else is in the room and I freeze. I make a run for the door in an attempt to escape but Dante grabs me in a bear hug refusing to let go of me.

I tried hitting Dante's chest to get him to back off but he only took my hands into his and held a tight grip that didn't allow me to escape.

Sighing I finally give in and slouch on to the ground.

"Sorry Ki....but you did promise me a dance. The least we could do is practise now." I nod slowly in understanding and take a deep breath as I glance at the person a few meters away.

Ivona Gillis, one of the most notorious dance instructors in our region, known for her strict teaching strategies and hundreds of successful students who've completed her classes and had went on to win various medals at competitions.

Me not being one of them.

I admittedly am a clumsy person, so when Andrew, Maria, Irene and I had to take dance lessons because our school when we were younger had a reputation of winning the ballroom dance competitions five consecutive times, we had gotten Ivona as our teacher.

When I had asked Jake and Dante about their instructors at their previous schools, they seemed to have had nice teachers while we had gotten the one who expected the most out of us.
